How to Replace a Window EASY

“You begin from the beginning” is one of the realest most true statements I’ve ever heard from a DIY channel. Thanks for the good content 🤞🏾

I really feel for this guy. He wants to tell you everything you need to know, all while trying to make the instructions simple to follow. I run into this all the time and my business is nothing like construction.

I started watching these videos in 2019. You are definitely my go-to channel when I'm ready to tackle a home repair on my own. So happy this channel exists.

[@HaydenKile]

Ripping on it then finding a screw holding it was so relatable and funny I appreciate your videos sir.

[@semmes5342]

Absolutely incredible instruction, the level of detail is second to none. How the level of 2 windows relates to backsplash tile is something 99% of us didnt even think of thats gold

[@Piledriver2235]

Great video! Bought my own house that needed gutted and completely redone. Been using your library to help with the things I didnt know. I worked residential framing and remodeling back in the 90s and still have retained a pretty good idea how to DIY most things even though I have been working heavy construction for the last 20years. Especially windows, I installed hundreds. But your other vids have shown me some new tricks that I didnt know since tech and materials have evolved in the last 20 years so I figured I'd check this one out. Back in the day we used to build up sills and sides with plywood or dimensional lumber to minimize the gaps, shim and then stuff fiberglass in the gaps and caulk the interior. Cap the exterior with aluminum we'd bend on a brake and then caulk seams. The way you wrapped the tyvek, waterproofed the sill and used foam just makes so much sense from an insulation and waterproof sense. I'm glad I watched before I started my installs. They have come a long way with foams in the decades I've been out of the game. Thanks for the great content

[@iAutodidact]

I’m going to be helping my lifelong-tradesman grandfather replace some windows and he’s gonna hate my newfound knowledge lol

[@diego59316]

I just got a quote for 12, 3x5 foot windows from a company for $25k and since I was so resistant to get them. They gave me a final offer of $13k at about 5% interest. SMH I’m glad these DIYers exist

[@ineedhoez]

Omg...I thought it said 2 windows for 25k. I was sick!

Being in the glass trade, my mentor told me a story years back, piece of glass he and his apprentice were carrying snapped and he being green reached for it to try and catch it, annnnnd it sliced it off clean, he held his apprentices DETATCHED hand from the wrist down in ice packs from his lunch box while rushing him to the hospital from a job site by ambulance... safety came second that day. I digress, love your content, I’m buying a new house soon and can’t wait to get to work making it a home. 👍🏼

[@johnzabinsky7535]

When I was a kid, dad put an addition on our house so that everyone would fit. I am amazed by the things a handy person can do. And now that I have my own home, your knowledge (and production quality) has made me confident enough to do my homework and give my projects a go. This is the most practical and realistic home repair show since Home Improvement! Many thanks to you fellas and happy Thanksgiving.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Cheers John, hope you had a Happy Thanksgiving as well.

[@360Dryerventcleaning]

Generally speaking, this is one of the best videos I’ve seen on this topic!

[@DomDollx]

I am so grateful rn to have come across your channel, instantly subbed. I'm on my 3rd video ...even if they're long as heck! - but we're in a mess with a new house with almost a complete reno and we've just cut ties with our 2nd contractor bc of all the bs they're pulling. I'm adding a tidbit here so others can be cautious. Don't rip out everything just because the contractor/hired help is intimidating you to do so! we were bullied and manipulated to do fixes we could've lived with and we decided it's just better to DIY some of the stuff we want to do and get specialized help with plumbing and electrical. Thank you so much for these helpful videos, I just learned a bunch of stuff about window install. Taking notes, rewinding etc like this is a university lecture! I appreciate the following about your videos (and I watch a lot of home improvement stuff and am a millennial): 1. 0 bs music covering up what you're saying 2. pauses at the right places, cutting out unnecessary bits so we can stick to the video which is already technical and long 3. very technical ...no loooongggg personal anecdotes, with light humor and mainly focused on instructional content 4. mentions of useful tools, materials, variations in applications and potential differences in conditions etc. again, ty so much!

[@buckeyebob55]

Jeff just want to thank you for your videos... I put in 3/4" hardwoods floors in our house by myself after watching several different videos and by far yours were the best and I wouldn't of attempted it until I watched you We saved several thousand dollars thanks to you We have a brick house and the windows are terrible not sure if I can pull it off house was built in 79 all wood framed windows

My cordless reciprocating saw is the best tool I've ever bought. Haven't used my corded Sawzall for years. Not only can you use a battery powered reciprocating saw on anything around the house, you can use it on trees on your property and other tasks around the yard. Come to think of it, I'm going to sell my Milwaukee corded Sawzall, I hardly ever used it. My second favorite tool I would recommend is a cordless narrow crown stapler. Mine is a Ryobi and Ryobi doesn't get much respect but their cordless narrow crown stapler is awesome!

[@goldiegibson7968]

Although I'm going to have someone put in my window, I now know whether or not the person is trying to cut corners and doing a half a$$ job. Thank you so much.

[@Emmanuelwithus]

You the man!! You made it simple, common sense and included the very important details for window purchase, tools, moisture defense and thermal breaking. I'm replacing 30 year old double hung windows and I'll find out if any of the defense tech that was available during that time was used as I'm anticipating some rot. Most of all you have me looking forward to replacing a window for the first time as well as it being the prototype for the others including a picture window replacement. Thank you very much and I look forward to your other videos on all things renovation!

[@andrewpetre6352]

What a great tutorial. Very relatable. Too often the installer is doing highly-skilled activities. This gives me hope that I could do the installation.

[@joserubenvega]

Your correct about your work being more professional than most actual professionals do. I got my garage professionally done by danleys garage. And I just saw a ceiling joist where they put a nail through supposedly to attach it to another piece of lumber. And the nail completely missed it so it’s not even attached to anything. Is just a nail going through the joists for decoration

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

It happens Cheers!

[@omgoddess7]

[@JamesMiller-hb3qt]

Jeff, I would like to thank you for the extra work you do to make your DIY videos. Your information and demonstrations have been very useful to me. I am restoring a late 19th century 2 storey log cabin that was relocated to a waterfront site 40 years ago, it was reconstructed to about 90% complete and then abandoned. It had no maintenance for about 20 years. I have had to abate the attic, replace windows, add new siding, rebuild a deck and 3 season room - and I have referred to your videos as my go-to resource. Not only have you saved me a ton of money, but the tips, tricks and recommendations for certain products that will help to avoid water problems in the future have made the job easier and more fun. It feels like I have done a good job ensuring I can enjoy the cottage without concerns or worry that I took a shortcut where I should not, or that the work is somehow insufficient. So, I wish I could shake your hand - virtual will have to do. I wish you much success in your business and I sincerely thank you.

Im assuming you ladies are leaning how to be “Handy Men”? If so, good for ya! Hope all works well, no better feeling that when YOU BUILD IT! And, you can say “don’t need a man to do work for ya” and it saves ya SOOOOO much money. For example. Doing my Front Porch Roof and A window and a peace of Vinal and minuscule paint touch up. But, a contractor woulda “UP” charge items and pay labor. Do all that, talking $2500+. Do it MYSELF, talking $850ish....BIG DIFFERENCE!

[@suzyhector6541]

[@AdaobiUkadike-Ellis]

[@1557Reckless]

The main reason I come to this channel before trying anything at home is because he tells me everything I need to know, not everything there IS to know and it makes it so much easier to understand and not feel as overwhelmed from information overload. And of course we're both Canadian so his store choices, building code mentions, and when he talks about weather patterns I know we have the same "types" of weather.

[@frankbivona3313]

I got a 1600.00 estimate to replace one 38 x 40 window the other day. That was obviously too much, so I decided to do it myself. Your video was very helpful and my friend and I are going to tackle it ourselves when the window comes in. (btw that estimate did not include the window) Thank you!

[@pielou10]

This is an old video, do you have a video explaining how to order a window? There was a lot of knowledge in this video, much more than any other I’ve seen!

[@Tinka0117]

I hope I can get up the nerve to do this. I have a lot of noise that comes from outside cars and it makes me think all of the windows need to be replaced (it's a 1940s home). Plus, I can see the caulk-like material looks so old from the outside. I'm a little nervous about what I might find once I take the windows out, but the price I was quoted is so much more than the wholesaler I called some months ago. I started by watching your painting videos, now you have me thinking I can renovate my whole home lol. Thank you for this!

[@Cor456]

@ 3:30 - prior to taking the sawzall to the old window frame.. measure and remeasure the new window. Hell, maybe even measure a third time Thanks for the video. I got an estimate for 3 windows and since he was already there measuring might as well price a sliding glass door with it. Guy said $5k and I thought it sounded good. Then he clarified that it was $5k just for the door. I saved so much doing it myself.

[@qaziirfanullah8519]

Wow! Jeff apart from being an excellent craftsman, you are pleasantly hilarious. You make a difficult job look simple and wit such a wonderful sense of humour watching and learning from videos is real treat. Thanks a million. Stay safe and healthy and keep posting such wonderful videos. Thanks.

From the first stuble across your channel trying to figure out how to level my house since the flood here in Waverly TN, to this one... you know every trick of the trade it seems. Great instruction every time, every video. The laser level tip... man, thats going to make life so much easier. Forrest

[@claudews529]

Really great tutorial. I work reno and, if I may, add some notes from my experiences: 1. side-HUNG & top-HUNG & PIVOT windows: the JAMBS are not always square, and I always check that the sides JAMBS are plumb, and that they align correctly with the SASH. 2. big and heavy windows (2 person to move), as well as 2 sections (side-by-side) windows: I leave the bottom shims in place, as well as the shims under the link between the 2 sections (the same that I would do with sliding glass doors) Thx for sharing, again I've learned many new tricks.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Hi Claude, when I order windows I always leave a little extra gap on an old house. in most cases if the window operates now then the new one will fit in the space just fine with the same measurements. Cheers with leaving in the shims.

[@claudews529]

@@HomeRenoVisionDIY I guess my technical english is not that good. I edited my comment with proper terminology (hopefully). My comment was not related to measures, but to weight, shims & plumb jambs. - side-hung windows have a tendency to pull on the side jamb and unsquare the window casing (at installation time). So I check jamb plumb, and sash/window-case alignment, for complete free movement of the sash. - For very heavy windows (ie: 5'x6' double glass), I leave the bottom shims in place. I don't fully trust the foam. Hope that clarifies And thank you for previous notes... regards

Hey Jeff! Thanks for all of the time you put into educating us! My wife and I bought a major fixer upper house in Orangeville, ON and close in January, 2022. We've done many remodels over the years but never a gut job down to the studs (renovation); nor have I done windows before... I feel I have a good understanding of most things, since I've dabbled in just about everything, but your videos have certainly helped me understand things way better than before... And maybe even made me realize I did a lot wrong haha. Since we live and work in similar areas, I was hoping you could recommend a window wholesaler that I should order my new windows from. Thanks again!!

[@robertsemenko6353]

Wow, i really messed up and hired a contractor. I need more than my pinky fingers to push and pull the window. I really appreciate how easy you make your videos to understand and give the confidence to do it. I went to attic to check it out, and wouldn't you know it? Moisture on one side of the window inside below the window. Clown shoe installers, clown shoe contractors did the work around the window.

[@deborahhefty2558]

I wish I had found your video sooner! I just put a piece of wood under a replacement window (post termite repair - the replacement window was from 12+ years ago and not done correctly by "professionals" in the first place.) I did put a heavy glob of silicone behind it to meet up with outside. Now I wish I hadn't and just used the foam. It's wedged in pretty tightly so I doubt I can get it out safely. I love your videos and have been binge-watching them lately. We were thinking about doing some of the demo for 2 bathroom renovations to save money, but after you mentioned the cost of tub/shower without vs. with new floor tile we decided the estimated we got were reasonable and I will just watch the work being done to ensure it is done correctly. The videos are truly homeowner-friendly!

It's a brick house so I'm using replacement windows.

I own Milwaukee M18 2720-20, and I'd argue that with the right battery, it is no less powerfull than your Dewalt. Current price on Amazon for that one is $130. Bring on more content please.

Sawzall is a model manufactured by Milwaukee for their high quality reciprocating saws. Otherwise you have another reciprocating saw. Never put nails or screws through the bottom track areas of your window frame into the sill. It destroys the seal and promotes water leakage.

I was watching this video, thinking "dang, whomever is hiring you to do this remodel is probably so glad they are getting quality work." --- Then I thought "there simply aren't enough people out there who do such a good job". --- Then I realized, "duh, that's why they're making videos!!" --- Anyway, thanks for spreading the incredible knowledge you've gained, and for taking such care to do it in a clear, professional, thorough, and efficient way!! You're the best.

Great video, super helpful. Is it possible to replace an old wood window on a 2nd floor without getting to it from the outside (up a ladder, etc)? Any suggestions on how? Thanks!

Hey, I have a house in Florida that I bought 5 years ago. It was built in 1986 and the windows are all original. They're casement windows. Some have broken hardware that I can't find anymore. 2 windows just don't work. I want to replacement the windows myself starting with the bathroom. It's small so it seems like a good place to start. The house is cinder block and concrete construction so I started with your basement window video and now this one. The weather is different here so tips for the heat and humidity would be much appreciated. I thought about a bigger window but it looks like more trouble than it will be worth. Could you do a short video for pointers that aren't covered in your window videos already? I really don't want casement windows this time so I can get better airflow. Thanks! I'm a huge fan of your channel.

Love your videos and this one in particular as it’s cool to see someone actually using the blue skin the factory I work at makes. I always wondered how companies actually used it as to me it’s just a roll that we put in a box
